Spaceport Sweden is a company that plans to make Kiruna the primary European Spaceport for personal suborbital spaceflight and space tourism. It's a co-operation between the Swedish Space Corporation, the Jukkasjärvi Icehotel, LFV Group and Kiruna’s business-development company Progressum.
The official inauguration of the company was made on 26 January 2007, and the company started off by signing an agreement with Virgin Galactic. The agreement stated that the two would be working together towards an operational agreement whereby Spaceport Sweden would be the first spaceport outside the United States which Virgin Galactic can use for flight campaigns.
